And just like that, GOG rose to surpass Steam as the better place to buy video games.

The only client I would willingly install alongside Steam

If only they had a Linux client I might do that too, but the client they said they would come out with never apeared

Funny how people like it when they actually provide value to you instead of only forcing an ad delivery/data collection tool on you, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong: if you're a linux gamer then GOG doesn't support your platform, no?

[-] greyw0lv@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

To my knowledge the client (gog galaxy) doesn't work. But the binary installers the actual games you buy can still work.

Call me when they add regional pricing, otherwise their sales are still way too expensive for me.

[-] v0rld@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

GOG enabled regional pricing several years ago.

They only support like a dozen different currencies, everyone else has to buy it in USD. If there implementation sucks, then it might as well not exist for us ignored by gog.
